INJURED PLAYERS DISCUSSION THREAD 2017

[Judd Magic]

Mav Weller rolled his ankle and is out this week

Great news for Steele owners.  ;)

Doesn't Weller play as a forward? Shouldn't affect Steele too much

This week... on Judd Magic logic!

Weller has stints in the midfield too so one less player doing that is good for Steeles midfield time.

Yep that's my logic, you're welcome.  8)

Someone else will take it up tho. Steele's mid time wont change

I just want his midfield time to me even more than what it is I guess.

But he plays mostly mid now with a rotation fwd. Its not going to increase

More mid, less forward?  :P

90% of mids rotate through the middle/fwd/bench. If you want less fwd time most lilely he'd be spending more time on the bench
= less time on ground

Yeah I know, was just being a smart ar5e.  ;D

when are you not a smart a$$ JM. you always saying funny stuff

;D

He played out the game so his shoulder is fine.

Landed on his elbow in a tackle, was his "good" shoulder

Thanks for that guys. Hate to see the little champ go down again. Had him as captain but more concerned about his general well  being. Cheers.

Some information for those that have kept Swallow and O'Meara

"GOLD Coast are prepared to rest David Swallow for up to a quarter of the season to prolong his career, reasoning he is incapable of self-preservation."

"STAR Hawthorn recruit Jaeger O’Meara could be out of AFL action for several weeks as he deals with an ongoing knee injury. "

O'Meara probably the most serious of the 2.

Anyone heard anything about Stringer? initial injury looked bad but then he sat on the bench with no ice or anything afterwards

Think they said 3 or 4

I heard 4 weeks but I think that was just a guess after it came out as not being an ACL. Having scans today so we should find out this arvo/tomorrow morning

[RaisyDaisy]

Stringer out for 2-3 weeks so will likely be out until their Round 11 bye

Hickey out for 6 weeks

I don't like the sound of Selwood walking around in a moon boot - albeit precautionary.  That ankle must be quite sore.
